- Ulihrach was playing great today against Lammer! I saw the first set and he was really consistent, not making too many mistakes despite his "Czech" style of play. He looks fit too, even though it was extremely hot and he's a bit old. I hope he wins his last match on Saturday!

- El Ayanoui: I saw his first match against Mayer and the first set of his match today against Stakhovsky. He was serving amazing against Mayer, hitting a lot of aces and service winners. His forehand was also "on" most of the time. Today, at least in the first set, he was playing much worse for some reason. But credit to Stakhovsky, a really good player, with a great serve.
